OK, I'm still working on it. I can run it from ssh but I want to be able to run it from kterm - so I'm working on that. Also there are some warnings about undefined symbols... BUT I can login and hear music.

My setup in case you are curious:
I have a partition on my laptop with debian ARM & qemu so I can chroot into it.
This way I can apt-get anything debian has, including source or just git tools or whatever.
Then I compile the program using the readme or whatever...
Then I have a script that packages it with the dependent libraries.
I then move it to the Kindle and ssh in and try it.

This program is weird because it calls for ffmpeg libraries that I tried to build but after 6 hours I gave up so I found a hint about using wheezy-backports for the libraries instead. Then pianobar built in like 20 seconds. Still working on the whole package.

edit: posted a working file in the other thread.
